Signal Processing Expert Returns to UW

October 10, 2011 — Dr. Lynn Kirlin returns
to the UW Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering as a
visiting scholar for fall semester. Lynn was a professor at UW from
1969-1986. He is also an alumnus having received both a B.S. and M.S.
from UW.

Lynn is one of the leading statistical signal processors in the country
and is an IEEE Fellow, which is the highest rank in the electrical
engineering professional society. He has 40 years of experience in
statistical signal and array processing with applications to
multidimensional data, images, speech and hearing, EEG, sonar, HF radar,
seismic, communications, and random switching for DC power conversion.
Over his career he has spent considerable time in both industry and
academia including working at the University of Victoria, Raytheon
Missile Systems, Rincon Research, Floating Point Systems, Datel, Boeing,
and Martin-Marietta. We are fortunate to have him here sharing his
knowledge with both students and faculty.
